The Glandular System Zone Technique
The glandular system plays a vital role in keeping the body balanced and healthy. It includes the major glands that regulate hormones and chemical messengers, such as:
- Thyroid gland – controls metabolism and energy.
- Adrenal glands – regulate stress response and immunity.
- Pituitary gland – the “master gland” that influences growth and reproduction.
- Pancreas – helps balance blood sugar and digestion.
- Ovaries and testes – regulate reproductive health and hormone balance.
When the glandular system is out of balance, people may experience fatigue, stress, poor sleep, mood swings, digestive issues, or changes in weight.
The Zone Technique helps to restore this balance by reconnecting the brain with the body’s glands. With gentle chiropractic adjustments, the nervous system begins to communicate properly again, allowing the thyroid, adrenals, pancreas, and other glands to function as they should.
As balance is restored, patients often notice more energy, improved mood, better sleep, and a stronger sense of overall well-being.

How the Zone Technique Relates to the Glandular System
In the Zone Technique, developed by Dr. Thurman Fleet in 1931, the body is divided into six systems or “zones.” One of these is the glandular zone. The idea is that stress, trauma, or chemical imbalances can cause the brain’s communication pathways with the glands to become disrupted.
Chiropractic adjustments using the Zone Technique aim to restore that brain-to-body connection. When the glandular system zone is balanced, the body can return to its natural state of healing and regulation. Patients often report better sleep, improved mood, more energy, and a greater sense of overall well-being when the glandular system is functioning properly.
Why This Matters
Balancing the glandular system is about more than just hormones. It’s about helping the entire body work in harmony. By supporting this system through gentle chiropractic care, patients may experience improvements in:
- Stress management
- Immune function
- Hormonal balance
- Energy and vitality
The glandular system is central to health, and the Zone Technique offers a natural way to restore balance.

FAQs for the Glandular System Zone Technique
1. What is the glandular zone in the Zone Technique?
The glandular system zone is one of the six healing zones in the Zone Technique chiropractic method. It focuses on the body’s glands, which are responsible for producing and regulating hormones. These glands include the thyroid, adrenals, pituitary, pancreas, ovaries, and testes. When the glandular zone is balanced, the brain and glands communicate effectively, allowing the body to regulate metabolism, energy, mood, reproduction, and stress response.
2. How does chiropractic care support the glandular system?
Chiropractic adjustments using the Zone Technique are designed to restore balance between the brain and the glandular system. Stress, trauma, or chemical imbalances can interfere with the brain’s signals to the glands. This may lead to symptoms like fatigue, mood changes, sleep issues, or low energy. By correcting these imbalances, chiropractic care helps the glands function more efficiently, which supports the body’s natural healing and hormonal balance.
3. What symptoms may improve when the glandular system is balanced?
Because the glands affect nearly every part of the body, balancing this system can have wide-reaching benefits. Patients often report improvements such as:
- Better sleep quality
- Increased energy and vitality
- More stable moods
- Lower stress levels
- Stronger immune function
- Improved digestion and metabolism
- Greater sense of overall well-being
When the glandular system works the way it should, the body can naturally restore balance and maintain health more effectively.
